About leadership studies at St. Norbert College
The leadership studies minor is a multidisciplinary academic program that has as its central concerns the study of current leadership theories, the practical use of those theories in every day life, ethical dimensions of leadership and the global common good. Leadership, within the mission of St. Norbert College, is defined as a process of envisioning worthy goals and persuading and enabling others to pursue and achieve them.
Students must declare this minor no later than second semester of their junior year. No more than two courses in one's major should count toward this minor. Minors will be expected to put together a leadership studies portfolio based upon papers and projects for their leadership studies courses, to be the basis for an integrated project in the capstone course and for assessment purposes.
Why study leadership studies?
The courses in this program examine ethical issues and principles relevant to leadership, theories and styles of leadership, the dynamics of leaders interacting with followers, the impact of leaders on organizations and communities, and leadership skills such as goal setting, effective communication and assessment.
